Drake tries to explain his money lust to Canadians

Rapper also kind of reveals that his romantic guy act is actually just kind of an act

Drake recently sat down for in-depth interview that will be broadcast Friday night on CBC’s The National after a full airing on the CBC Radio show Q with Jian Ghomeshi.

But whether he actually reveals anything about himself in the process may be subject to interpretation.

Among other things, the rapper reveals that his pursuit of success has come at the expense of “nurturing personal relationships” — which certainly contradicts all the rhymes that have implied that he is constantly in a romance with one woman or another, not to mention all the celebrity gossip reports.

“I think it’s a great age to be doing that,” the almost-27-year-old Drake conceded about putting career over family, for right now.

The former Degrassi star also attempted to answer a question about what money means to him, although Ghomeshi quickly gave up on trying to get a coherent response — and shifted to asking Drake about his pursuit of power instead.
